The typical microstructure of Al-5%Mg-2%Zn cast alloy mainly consists of an aluminum matrix with a small amount of AlMgZn 2nd phase. The secondary dendrite arm spacing and the grain size of the cast alloy tend to be inversely proportional to the section thickness of casting; however, the tensile properties cannot be said to be clearly related to the cast microstructure. After T6 heat treatment, the tensile strength of the alloy was enhanced significantly. TEM analysis results show that very fine AlMgZn precipitates were formed after the heat treatment. The corrosion resistance, measured according to the corrosion potential, was found to increase slightly after the conducting of heat treatment.

In rheo forming process, slurry making is very important factor because the microstructure of slurry affects the quality of final products. To control the microstructure of slurry, slurry making by new rheo die casting was studied. In new rheocasting method, processes parameters are degree of overheat in molten metal, cooling condition, high frequency induction heating condition and cup temperature. Microstructures according to these parameters were observed. By image analysis, equivalent diameter and roundness of grain were investigated and discussed. To find out mechanical properties of grain controlled aluminum part by rheo die casting, tensile tests were carried out to the T6 heat treatment.

In order to theoretically analyze the creep behavior of high Cr steel at $600^{\circ}C$, a unified elasto-viscoplastic constitutive model based on the consideration of dislocation density is proposed. A combination of a kinetic equation describing the mechanical response of a material at a given microstructure in terms of dislocation glide and evolution equations for internal variables characterizing the microstructure provides the constitutive equations of the model. Microstructural features of the material such as the grain size and spacing between second phase particles are directly implemented in the constitutive equations. The internal variables are associated with the total dislocation density in a simple model. The model has a modular structure and can be adjusted to describe a creep behavior using the material parameters obtained from uniaxial tensile tests.

This study examined the effect of cancellous bone microstructure on stress distribution within a premolar tooth and a dental implant against mastication force by the micro-finite element method (FEM). The mandibular specimen including a premolar was obtained from a cadaver and scanned with micro-CT to obtain CT images. FE models were reconstructed from CT images at mid-sagittal plane of the tooth. Six models were generated and analyzed for different structure and density in cancellous bone. Stress distributions fur each implant (or tooth) and the surrounding bone were compared. The study indicated that the microstructure of cancellous bone should be considered in finite element analysis to produce reasonable results and thus implant systems with high success rate.

Rheo-forging process of aluminum alloy is suitable for large parts of net shape without defects and excellent mechanical properties in comparison with conventional die casting and forging process. To control the microstructure of the product with high mechanical properties in rheo-forming, solid fraction is required to prevent porosity and liquid segregation. Therefore, in rheo-forging process, die shape, pressure type and solid fraction are very important parameters. The defects such as porosity, liquid segregation and unfitting phenomena occur during rheo-forging process. To prevent these defects, mechanical properties and microstructure analysis of samples versus the change of pressure are carried out and the problem and its solutions are proposed. Also, the mechanical properties versus various pressures were compared with and without heat treatment. The alloys used for rheo-forming are A356 and 2024 aluminum alloy. The rheology material is fabricated by electromagnetic process with controlling current and stirring time.

The increasing demand for automotive industries to reduce the weight of the vehicles has led to a growing usage of Al alloy powder metallurgy (P/M) parts. In order to control the sintered microstructure and mechanical properties of the aluminium alloy powder metallurgical (P/M) parts, it is essential to establish a fundamental understanding of the microstructural development during the sintering process. This paper presents a detailed study of the effect of temperature and initial starting materials on the evolution of microstructure during the sintering of Al-Cu-Mg-Si blends for PM.

Permalloys were successfully fabricated by melt drag casting in the present study, and their microstructure and consequent magnetic properties have been investigated as a function of Si content. In order to understand the relationship between magnetic properties and Si content, microstructure and texture were observed and phase analysis were performed by TEM. The effective permeability went through a maximum value at $2\%$ Si and then decreased with increasing Si content. Increasing Si content enlarged grain size, which resulted in improvement of permeability. However, over-added Si caused the formation of $Ni_3Fe$ order phase so that $5\%$ Si added permalloys had the smallest permeability.

The microstructure evolution of Alloy 718 during the direct age(DA) process was predicted using the recrystallization model and finite element analysis. The DA process of Alloy 718 was performed in two-step forging using capsulated cylindrical billets of 122mm in diameter and 180mm in height. In order to evaluate the microstructural change during the forging, a dynamic recrystallization model of Alloy 718 was implemented onto the user-subroutine of the commercial FEM code. The prediction of microstructure evolution in DA processed Alloy 718 pancake was compared with experimental results.

Reducing media noise is a key to realizing high areal recording density. However, perpendicularly oriented Co-Cr films, stong candidates for high density recording media, have received little attention in terms of recording noise. We studied the noise characteristics of Co-Cr based alloy films by varying the compositionally separated structure. Co-Cr films with fine compositionally separated microstructure were observed to have low noise, which recording density dependence were negative or week. Studies on control of the microstructure and magnetic properties in combination with noise analysis are important to realize high density recording media.

A full three-dimensional thermo-coupled rigid-viscoplastic finite element method and the currently developed microstructural evolution system which includes semi-empirical equations suggested by different research groups were used together to form an integrated system of process and micro- structure simulation of hot rolling. The distribution and time histroy of the momechanical variables such as temperature, strain, strain rate, and time during pass and between passes were obtained from the finite element analysis of multipass hot rolling processes. The distribution of metallurgical variables were calculated on the basis of instantaneous thermomechanical data. For the verification of this method the evolution of microstructure in plate rolling and shape rolling was simulated and their results were compared with the data available in the literature. Consequently, this approach makes it possible to describe the realistic evolution of microstructure by avoiding the use of erroneous average value and can be used in CAE of multipass hot rolling.
